[CUBA] Despite being a country so close to my island, I had never received mail from Cuba before. This is my first postcard from there. It was sent with two other more postcards by a friend who visited Cuba. It shows the Palacio de los Matrimonios "Marriages Palace", located in the Prado Street in Havana City, the Capital of Cuba. Built in 1914 as Casino Español "Spaniard Casino", the Palacio de los Matrimonios is a Neo-Renaissance building well known as one of the most famous Spanish social clubs in Cuba and the most famous place to celebrate marriage and ballrooms events. I googled some pictures of the palace and I must say it's really stunning inside and outside. The postcard is not postmarked. It has a stamp displaying the Antonov-158 an Ukrainian produced aircraft that belongs to Cubana, the state-owned Cuban airlines.

[LETTER] This is the beautiful poem Letter I
received from a big friend of mine, sent to me using Snail Mail My Email. I'm
so so so happy with getting this amazing letter. My friend knows I'm crazy
about astronomy and space, but also in love about poem, so this was an amazing
choice. But also, I have to send a BIG thanks to the Letter Artist who painted
and wrote the letter because she/he really took the poem to place it
artistically in the letter, adding this amazing space background, even the
stamp matched! I think I'm gonna get this poem framed. Should I?
